I'll just drop this here. Someone might need it.
Yes. Part-time with the based nostr:nprofile1qqsfvzdsjdzsm4lq47ecjcv6ekhju6sddqtujd2j7wg3upd4ptnnu0gpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9udexj22 #podcast
In other news, job hunt is over! Got a contract for a great school in Thailand. All is well, praise Jesus. 🙏
Lol, one has to use LN, coinjoins and L-BTC to be private??
Wow... That sounds like an epic fail. Talk about trying to put lipstick on a pigs arse...
Of couuurrrseee Bitcoin is private, just you know, don't use it as it was initially implemented... Use these patches to gain privacy. As if there is not technological (LN nodes need to be live) or financial (LN and coinjoin aren't free to use) or custodial (Liquid) hurdles to using Bitcoin in a private manner...
Kanzan, not sure he realizes that when talking to someone who uses monero, HFSP means "have fun staying private"
How is buying a lot of Bitcoin analogous with consumerism?
I'm talking about SCALE. 0.002% of Bitcoin being sort of private isn't good enough... Sorry
Well you didn't respond in good faith. Yours was not a rebuttal. You just called me names.
Soooo
Suck a dick
"Bitcoin is not for everyone"
Yeah like anyone who wants privacy moving large amounts of bitcoin lol. What a dumb thing to say.
I eviscerate your position, and you retort with, oh... Okay well Bitcoin isn't for everyone...
Not caring about "someone, some organization or some country "
You realize that encompasses EVERYONE?
LN privacy is the ultimate LARP.
0.002% Bitcoin (AKA LN) != Bitcoin
So if you want to argue BITCOIN privacy, let's focus on base layer privacy
Wow, way to move the goal posts. We're talking about the PRIVACY of Bitcoin.
Now you're lecturing me about not being afraid?
"Sort of" privacy in 0.002% of the Bitcoin protocol (AKA LN)? That's what you're defending?
LN privacy isn't quantifiable... It MIGHT be private... But the moment it isn't, you wouldn't know
LN is 0.002 of the Bitcoin network...
Self custodial LN use would be a fraction of THAT.
Try telling someone, some organization, or some country who wants to buy 6000 bitcoins that "dude just download Zeus" "dyudee, it's private, I zapped you and you couldn't trace it!!! "
Wow bravo, you could hide the origin of a 10 sat zap from the counterparty... But what about a situation where chain anal, 3 letter agencies or nation states are surveilling the LN ? How would you know that? How would you mitigate against it? They could reek havoc on privacy.
Tl;dr privacy for 0.002% of the Bitcoin protocol!= Bitcoin protocol is private
Good morning from China
Also...
You can lol, at least in Amethyst... But it's hard because it's not fool proof.
People talk about it in different ways. Can't just mute the word price
I remember when I respected the NYT...
Shit.
(Not because they were more respectable then, I just knew less)
Depends.
